ABSTRACT
The lasting effects of instruction and supervision through Academic Learning Time-
Physical Education (ALT-PE) on the relationship between perceived and observed
behaviors of physical education student teachers and their students were
investigated. Twenty-six physical education student teachers, who had earlier
participated in a study done by O' Brien (1985) that assessed the effectiveness of two
different types of supervisory feedback--systematic and conventional feedback--on
pre-service teachers' behaviors, were videotaped three times while teaching their
regularly rheduled classes. The three tapes of each subject were coded using the
ALT-PE instrument. Prior to every videotaped class and immediately following
these classes, each subject filled out the Teacher's Questionnaire on the Students'
Activities (TQSA). This instrument was used to record the perceived students'
behavior. The subjects were divided into two groups--those who had received
conventional supervisory feedback as part of O'Brien's study (control group) and
those who had received systematic supervisory feedback (treatment group) as part of
O'Brien's study. All the videotapes served as data for the analysis. Only the post-
class estimates from the TQSA were used for analysis. In the treatment group,
significant canonical corelations were found for four variables in the context level
and four variables in the learner involvement level. In the control group, no
significant canonical correlations were found in the context level, and only one
variable showed significant canonical correlations in the learner involvement level.
No statistical test of the differences between correlations was applied because the
correlations were so obviously different that for practical purposes there was a clear
difference between the treatment and control group. This led to the rejection of the
first hypothesis that there would be no significant differences in the observed
teaching behaviors between the physical education student teachers who received
instruction in and supervision through ALT-PE and those who did not.
Multivariate analysis of variance was used to detenrrine significant differences in the
students' behaviors between the groups. Significant differences (p < .05.) led to the
rejection of the second hypothesis that there would be no significant difference
between the accmed ALT-PE of students engaged in classes taught by physical
education student teachers who received instruction and supervision through ALT-
PE and those who did not receive instruction and supervision through ALT-PE.
Univariate analysis of variance was performed on each of the ALT-PE variables to
identify those variables that accounted for a significant amount of the between-group
difference. The variables that accounted for the between-group difference in the
context level were transition/management and wann up, and in the learner
involvement level the variables that accounted for the between-group difference
were waiting, off-task, on-task, and motor appropriate (ALT-PE). From the findings
it was concluded that physical education student teachers instructed in and
supervised through ALT-PE were significantly more accurate in estimating observed
students'behaviors. It was also concluded that physical education student teachers
who had been instructed in and supervised through ALT-PE during O'Brien's study
had students who accrued more ALT-PE than those students whose teachers only
received conventional feedback. lastly, it was concluded that the effects of
instruction and supervision through ALT-PE were still maintained up to 1 year
following the cessation of training.

Chapter 1
INTRODUCTION
Our educational institutions are often the target of public criticism. Many
people, including educators, recognize the need for a scientific approach to observe
and evaluate the educational process and to increase teacher effectiveness. Through
the years, teachers have been observed in the classroom and provided with feedback
concerning their teaching behavior. However, this conventional method was
subjective and unreliable and often not a valid measure of teaching behaviors. In
order to correct this situation, researchers developed systematic observation. This
method allows a trained person, using a systematic observation instrument and
following stated guidelines and procedures, to observe, record, and analyze teachers'
and students'behaviors with the assurance that the data collected are reliable and
valid. Many systematic observation instruments are now being used in physical
education to analyze activity in our gymnasiums and playfields.
Interaction analysis is one type of systematic observation technique. Many
researchers have used interaction analysis to gather objective information
about teachers' and students'behaviors: this information is then used to provide
teachers with systematic supervisory feedback. Getty (7977), Hendrickson (7975),
Rochester (1976), and Vogel (1970 all used interaction analysis to provide teachers
with supervisory feedback. These researchers found the use of interaction analysis
facilitated changes in teachers' behavior. Getty found the effects of interaction
analysis were still present 1 month after the completion of the training period.
Mancini, Morris, and Getty (1.979) also found this to be the case in relation to teacher
effectiveness. Mancini, Frye, and Quinn (1982) were the first to investigate the
lasting effects of instmction and supervision in interaction analysis on teaching
behavior, effectiveness, and attitudes of inservice physical educators up to 4 years
after undergraduate teacher training. These researchers determined systematic
supervisory feedback had lasting effects not only on teaching behaviors but also on
attitudes and teaching effectiveness.
Another type of systematic observation is interval recording. Interval
recording permits the observer to record the occurrence or nonoccurrence of
specified behaviors within a predetermined time interval. One instrument that
utilizes this method and that has been used frequently in the area of physical
education is the Academic Learning Time.Physical Education (ALT-PE) instrument.
The ALT-PE instrument is based on research generated from the Beginning Teacher
Evaluation Studies GTES). BTES' researchers (Fisher et al., 1978) demonstrated that
it was possible to use student time-on-task for product measures of student
achievemenU this time measure was named Academic Learning Time (ALT). The
researchers also developed a coding instrument to facilitate the gathering of data
about student ALT. To utilize this concept and instrument within the physical
education and sport environment, Siedentop, Birdwell and Metzler (1979) modified
the ALT instrument to permit the coding of physical activity. The amount of ALT-
PE accrued is used as a direct measure of student achievement, which the teacher's
behavior influences indirectly (Siedentop et al., 197r'.
Many intervention and feedback studies have used the ALT-PE instrument to
gather information to provide teachers with feedback. Birdwell (1980), Hart (1983),
Metzler (1980b), Paese 0982), and Whaley (1980) investigated the value of different
interventions and forms of feedback on teaching behavior. These studies revealed
3
that verbal and written feedback was shown to be a valuable supervisory tool in
helping teachers improve instructional performance and increase their students'
achievement as measured by accrued ALT-PE. Similarly, Grecic, Mancini, and
Wuest 0984), who used the same population as Mancini et aI. (7982), found the
effects of instruction and supervision in interaction analysis on student ALT-PE
were maintained 1 to 4 years after cessation of the training period.
Several researchers have investigated the effects of supervisory feedback on
teachers' awareness of their behaviors. Withall (1972) found that 85Vo of the teachers
from nursery through graduate school had little awareness of their behaviors or
what effect it had on their students. Batchelder (1975) found that physical education
teachers were inaccurate in 94Vo of their estimates of their process objectives,
followed by English teachers with 84Vo and math teachers with77Vo. Would
supervisory feedback help teachers become more aware of their behaviors? Beam
(1972) found that teachers who were trained in the interpretation of classroom
interaction analysis tended to reduce the difference between their displayed and ideal
classroom behaviors, as well as their displayed and perceived classroom behaviors.
However, the teachers who received training in interaction analysis but received no
feedback tended to increase the differences in displayed and perceived classroom
behaviors and their displayed and ideal classroom behaviors. Van der Mars,
Mancini, and Frye (1981) studied the effects of instruction and supervision through
systematic supervisory feedback on the relationship between the perceived and
observed teaching behaviors of 36 pre.service physical educators. They reported that
the subjects who received the systematic supervisory training were more indirect in
their teaching and were more accurate in estimating their behaviors compared to
4
those subjects who received conventional supervisory feedback.
O'Brien (1985) further investigated the effects of instruction and supervision
through ALT-PE by studying the relationship between the perceived teaching
behaviors and the observed teaching behaviors of 30 preservice physical educators
involved in micro-peer teaching. It was concluded that pre-service physical
educators instructed in and supervised through ALT-PE were significantly more
accurate in estimating observed students'behaviors as compared to those pre'service
teachers who received conventional supervisory feedback. It was also found that
pre-service physical educators instructed in and supervised through ALT-PE had
students who accrued more ALT-PE than those students in the class whose teachers
only received conventional feedback.
This investigation was undertaken as a follow-up to O'Brien's 1985 study. This
investigation sought to determine the lasting effects of instruction and supervision
through ALT-PE on physical education student teachers' awareness of their
behaviors.
Scope of the Problem
This investigation was conducted to determine the lasting effects of instruction
and supervision through ALT-PE on the relationship between perceived and
observed behaviors of students in classes taught by physical education student
teachers. The subjects were 26 physical education student teachers enrolled at Ithaca
College, Ithaca, New York These subjects had participated in a previous study by
O'Brien (1985) that assessed the effectiveness of two different types of supervisory
feedback-systematic and conventional feedback--on pre-service teachers'behaviors.
O'Brien's study revealed that those pre.service teachers who had received systematic
suPervisory feedback provided their students with more academic learning time or
time-on-task and were more aware of their behaviors than those teachers who only
received conventional supervisory feedback.
This follow-up investigation was undertaken to detennine whether the effects
of supervisory feedback were long lasting. Each subject was videotaped teaching
three 40-min physical education classes. The tapes were coded using the revised
ALT-PE instrument (Siedentop, Tousignant, & Parker, 7982). The ALT-PE data
provided information about the students' observed behaviors. Each subject fitled
out the Teacher's Questionnaire on the Students' Activities (TQSA)(O'Brien, 1985)
prior to and again immediately following each class. The TQSA data provided
information about the students' perceived behaviors.
Statement of Problem
This investigation was conducted to study the lasting effects of instmction and
supervision through ALT-PE on the relationship between the perceived and the
observed behaviors of physical education student teachers and their students.
This study was also conducted to assess if there u/ere any significant difference
in the accmed ALT-PE of students engaged in classes taught by physical education
student teachers who received instruction and supervision through ALT-PE and
those who did not receive supervisory feedback using ALT-PE.
Major Hypotheses
1. There will be no significant differences between observed teaching behaviors
of those physical education student teachers who received instruction and
supervision through ALT-PE and those who did not receive instruction and
supervision through ALT-PE in the correlations between the perceived and the
obseⅣed teaching behaviors.
2. There will be no significant difference between the accrued ALT― PE of
sttdents engaged in classes taught by physical education student teachers whO
received irlstruction and supervision through ALT― PE and those who did not
r∝eive insけ uction and supervision through ALT― PE.

REVIEW OF RELATED LTTERATURE
The review of related literature will focus on the following areas: (a) the use of
feedback to modify teacher behavior, (b) studies involving ALT-PE, (c) teacher
awareness in the classroom, and (d) summary.
The Use of Feedback to Modify Teacher Behavior
For years teachers were provided with information by their supervisors on
their teaching performance in an attempt to help them modify and change their
behaviors. However, this conventional verbal feedback typically focused only on
asPects of classroom management, control and methodology and was subjective in
nature. Although this feedback was helpful, it did not provide objective descriptions
of the classroom events. Recently the use of systematic observation systems have
allowed trained observers to record classroom events as they occurred. These
instruments provided objective data on classroom teachers'and students'behaviors.
The data are then used to provide teachers with supervisory feedback this process is
referred to as systematic supervisory feedback.
Interaction analysis is one technique that has been used to provide teachers
with systematic supervisory feedback lnteraction analysis instruments fobus on
teachers' and students' interactions and give'an objective event-by-event description
of what happens in the class. This enables the supervisor and the teacher to select
and modify the teaching behaviors that require attention.
Several researchers have used the Flanders' Interaction Analysis System (FIAS)
(Flanders, 1960) and its modifications to study the effects of instruction and/or
supervision in FIAS on teachers' behaviors. Love and Barry 0971,) used the Timer-
10
Love Adaptation of FI.AS to investigate the difference between those student teachers
ffained using the instrument and those not trained. Results showed that the student
teachers who received training developed a sense of cooperation with each other
during the training period, were able to analyze their own teaching, and
demonstrated both the desire and ability to change their own teaching behavior.
Bondi (1970 used FIAS to provide student teachers in the treatment group with
systematic feedback derived from FIAS matrices and information sheets, while the
control group received conventional feedback. Bondi found that the student
teachers who received the systematic supervisory feedback were more indirect in
their teaching, gave more praise, asked more questions, and accepted and clarified
students'ideas more than those student teachers who did not receive training.
The Cheffers' Adaptation of FIAS (CAFIAS) (Cheffers, 1983) was developed for
use in physical activity settings. Many studies have used this instrument to provide
teachers with supervisory feedback and also as a method to investigate its effects on
teachers' behavior. Keilty (197il sought to determine the effects of 15 hours of
instruction and supervision in CAFIAS on pre-service physical educators teaching
behaviors in a micro-peer setting. The Teacher Performance Criteria Questionnaire
(TPCQ) was used to assess teacher effectiveness. Keilty reported that those teachers
who received CAFIAS training were more indirect in their teaching style compared
to those teachers who did not receive training. However, no significant changes
were found in teacher effectiveness.
Hendrickson (1975) and Rochester (7975) used CAFIAS as the training
instrument for pre-service physical education teachers during micro-peer teaching
lessons. In both studies, the control groups viewed their videotapes and received
11
conventional supervisory feedbaclg while the teachers in the treatment group
viewed their videotapes and received conventional supervisory feedback plus
instruction and feedback from CAIrL{S. Hendrickson found that the pre.service
teachers trained in CAFIAS asked more questions, accepted and praised students'
ideas more, were more student-oriented, were more indirect in their teaching, and
used more small group and individual instruction than those pre.service teachers
who were not trained. In Rochester's study, the treatment group also received
additional supervision and experience in the coding of CAFIAS, The treatment
SrouP had less teacher talk, more verbal questioning by the teacher, and more
student initiated behavior occuring in their classes as compared to the control
grouP.
The effect of systematic supervisory feedback on student teachers' behavior was
investigated by Vogel(o976) and by Getty 09m. The treatment group in Vogel's
study received 10 hours of instruction and coding using CAIIL{S along with
comPuter feedback, while the control Broup only received conventional supervisory
feedback. Getty (1977) decided to increase the training in CAFIAS for the treatment
group from 10 to 15 hours, while the control group received 15 hours of
conventional supervisory feedback. In both studies, the subjects trained in CAFLAS
were more indirect in their teaching style, used more praise, permitted more verbal
and nonverbal student-initiated behaviors, and made better use of questions. In
Getty's study, the differences that were observed in the students'behavior following
' training were still present 1 month after training had ended. As a follow-up study to
Getty (1977), Mancini et al. (1979) used the TItQ on the same set of subjects in order
to determine the lasting effects of instruction and supervision in CAFIAS on teacher
effectiveness. They found that the treatment group scored higher on the TPCQ and
were more effective than the control group. They also concluded that teacher
effectiveness could be maintained 1 month after the training had ended.
Inturrisi (197, studied the effects of feedback and instruction in interaction
analysis on the teaching behaviors and attitudes of physical education student
teachers. Significant differences in teacher use of questioning, pupil inititation, and
acceptance and praise were observed, in favor of the teachers in the treatment group.
The Teacher Situation Reaction Test (TSRT) was used to assess teachers'attitudes.
The results indicated that the student teachers exposed to CAFIAS showed more
positive teaching attitudes than the control group.
Mancini et al. (1982) investigated the effects of supervisory feedback using
CAFIAS up to 4 years post-haining on 26 in-service teachers' behaviors, attitudes,
and effectiveness. The results revealed that the teachers trained in CAFIAS as
undergraduates used more questions, were more indirect in their teaching and
accepted and praised students more than those who received conventional
supervisory feedback. The teachers who had been trained in interaction analysis
were more effective and had a more positive attitude. The study showed that the
effects of interaction analysis training could be maintained 1 to 4 years after the
training period had ended.
Grecic et al. (1984) used the same set of subjects as Mancini et al. (1982) to
investigate the lasting effects of training in interaction analysis on the students'
ALT-PE during classes taught by in-service physical educators. The subjects trained
in interaction analysis as undergraduates were more efficient teachers and had
greater student involvement in their classes. The students in their classes had twice
|
13
as much ALT-PE as the control group students (40.1Vo compared to 2'l..3Vo).
Interaction analysis training was shown to be effective in providing teachers
with feedback to change their behaviors. Another tool, the ALT-PE instrument, can
also be used as an assessment instrument as well as to provide teachers with
systematic supervisory feedback.
ALT-PE
ALT-PE is the amount of ALT accrued by a student involved in a physical
education class. Carroll (1953) was the first to suggest that a relatioruhip existed
between time and student learning. He stated that the degree to which a student was
involved in learning, as measured by time, was one of the most influential factors in
creating favorable learning environment. The BTES (Fisher et al., 1978) were the
first major research effort to identify specific teaching skills that were related to
student learning. These studies were conducted by the Far West Laboratory for
Educational Research and Development in 1,972.
The BTES findings supported the use of time as a measure of student learning.
This concept of time-on-task became known as ALT and was defined as the amount
of time a student spends engaged in a relevant learning task with a high success rate
(Marliave, 1970. Berliner (7979) supported the use of time-on-task for a product
measure of actual achievement. Initially, ALT was used to monitor both teacher and
student behavior. Higher levels of ALT were found to be associated with teacher
effectiveness and student achievemen$ students who accrued high levels of ALT
learned more than low level accruers.
The ALT model consists of four interrelated components achievement:
allocated time (the time provided for learning a task), engaged time (the percentage
74
of allocated time students spent actively responding), task relevanry (the degree to
which an activity can be viewed as contributing to an academic goal), and success rate
(the amount of success experienced by the student for the engaged task) (Marliave,
1977). The BTES research that indicatd that ALT was significantly related to
students'achievement received strong support from other researchers (Berliner,
1978; Marhave, 7979 ; Mtz 1980).
The BTES researchers developed an ALT observation instrument to facilitate
the monitoring of ALT in the classroom. This was then modified by Siedentop et al.
(7979) so it could be used as an observation instrument in physical activity settings.
In this modification, ALT was named ALT-PE and was defined as the amount of
time a student spends engaged in a relevant task at an easy level of difficulty
(Siedentop et al., 797il. The category ALT-PE M) reflected the amount of time a
student was successfullly engaged in a relevant motor task.
The purpose of the ALT-PE instrument was to facilitate observation of
participation levels of physical education students in respect to the context of the
class and the difficulty of the activity. This initial system consisted four major
decisions: setting (instructional style), content (general or physical education-
related), learner moves (engaged or non-engaged), and level of difficulty (easy or not
easy). A 12-s interval recording format was used: the coder observed for 5 s, then
recorded for 5 s.
In order to make the original ALT-PE instrument easier to use, Siedentop et al.
revised the initial instrument in 1982. The revised ALT-PE instrument consists of
only two major decision levels--context level and learner involvement--compared
to the four levels in version I. In version II, there is no setting category to reflect the
15
sPectrum of teaching styles, but the inclusion of general content and subject matter
motor makes possible a clearer picture of what the students are doing in dass.
Version [I includes a number of other changes; the warm-up category was added;
non-academic instruction and other motor responses were deleted, and the learner
'moves grouping (engaged and not engaged) became motor engaged and not motor
engaged, respectively.
Metzler (1980b) used the ALT-PE instrument to identify the amount of ALT-PE
accmed in a variety of physical education settings. The subjects were 21 physical
educators teaching at the elementary, junior high, and high school levels. A total of
32 classes were observed encompassing 13 different activities, with two or three
target students observed in each class. The results showed that students were
involved in PE-Content 73.6Vo of the class time, ALT-PE occurred 26.8Vo of all class
intervals, and ALT-PE(M) occurrdT.sEo of all intervals. Both ALT-PE(M) and ALT-
PE were the highest at the elementary level, followed by the iunior high and the
high school level, respectively.
The same data were also used by Metzler (1980a) to examine the levels of ALT-
PE accrued by students in each of the 13 physical education activities. The highest
mean percentages of ALT-PE were found in volleyball (59.4V.) and soccer (4A3Vo); the
lowest were found in football (14.7Vd and gymnastics (12.3yd. The results revealed
that students engaged in team activities accmed more ALT-PE than did students in
individual activities. In addition, Metzler found that the ALT-PE did not increase as
. the teaching unit progressed.
Metzler (1981) examined the ALT-PE of college students. Descriptive statistics
showed that 45Vo of all coded intervals were ALT-PE, nearly twice the amount of
16
ALT-PE exhibited in the 1st-12th grades study. This revealed a substantially higher
level of involvement on the part of the college students.
Godbout, Brunelle, and Tousignant (1983) studied the amount of ALT-PE
experienced by students in 30 elementary and 31 secondary physical education
classes. Content-PE time accounted for 55.7Vo of the class time at the elementary
level and 87.7Vo at the secondary level. ALT-PE constituted 36.4Vo of the class time in
the secondary classes and 37.3Vo of the class time in the elementary classes.
The differences in learning opportunities in traditional elementary physical
education classes were investigated by Placek, Silverman, Shute, Dodds, and Rife
(1982). One male physical educator and 53 elementary school first, third, and fifth
grade pupils were used as subjects. ALT-PE percentages were derived for three
classifications: high-, medium-, and low-skilled students; girls and hyr; and for
different instructional units. The results revealed no significant difference in the
ALT-PE accrued by girls and boys. However, high-skilled students accrued 757r, ALT-
PE(M), the medium-skilled students accrued 9Vo, and the low-skilled students
accnred 8vo. A similar study was conducted by Shute, Dodds, Placek, Rife, and
Silverman (1982) to examine the differences in learning opportunities in elementary
movement classes. This study investigated differences in ALT-PE between boys and
girls, special and non-special need groups, and various skill levels. The results
revealed that equal opportunities existed for all groups within the class.
Another study that compared the ALT-PE of regular and mainstreamed
handicapped students was undertaken by Aufderheide, McKenzie, and Knowles
(1982). Teachers were identified as users or nonusers of individualized instruction.
The data showed that users of individualized instruction provided a significantly
17
gleater amount of ALT-PE for theit students whether they were mahstreamed or
nonmairutreamed. Sttrdents engagd in dasses taught by teadrers using
individuatized instruction were engated 57,2% of the class time compared with
8.94% for students of nonus€rs of individualized instnrction.
McKenzie, Clarh and McKenzie (1982) studied the ALT-PE of students when
different instnrctlonal strategies were used by their teacher. Six irutnrctional
strategies during beginning fencing classes, all taught by the same o<perienced
teacher were assesed. ALT-PEM) accrtred during active learning periods ranged
from26.9% for bouting to 97.957o for machinepaced drllling. Feedback ranged from
78.7% for teadter-paced drilling compared with 54.8% for strdent-paced drilling.
McKenzie et aL concluded that teachlng strategie that maintatn high levels of ALT-
PE and allow more feedback were valuable.
Experimental Teaddng Units (ETU), as a method of meanrring ALT-PE, wene
utilized by Young (1981) and Keller (1982). An ETU ls a novel ekill designed to
reduce the influence of prior learning. Both researchers chose a combined
golflhockey novel skill that involved hitting a ball into a hoop for the ETU. In
Young's shrdy, a pretest was administered, followed by a 2Gmin lesson in whictr the
content was regulated but not the irutmctional style. Foltowing the lessorU a poet-
test was Fvm. Young r€portd that higher post-test scores correlated wtth increased
ALT-PE, indicating student mastery of the ETU ski[. Keller (1982) studied the effects
of two instructional methods, the lecture/demonstration method and the reverae
chaining method, on student achievement scores and acrrtred ALT-PE(M). The
resulB showed no significant differences in the ALT-PE actmed by students taught by
either the lecture/demorutration or revetse chaining instnrctional m*hod.
18
Many researchers have investigated the value of different forms of feedback
and intervention in an effort to increase teacher effectiveness. One of the initial
studies that examined the effects of feedback on the ALT-PE of students was
conducted by Whaley (1980). Twelve students from four schools were observed in
. their daily physical education class for 7 weeks. Both teachers and students were
made aware that more engaged time and increased motor response opportunities
were more desirable; however, the ways of achieving these goals were not discrrssed.
Throughout the study graphic feedback was given to both teachers and students. The
findings indicated that feedback and daily monitoring were effective in some schools
but not others in increasing students' ALT-PE.
A similar study by Birdwell (1980) examined the effects of instruction and daily
feedback given to three in-service teachers on the ALT-PE of their students. Not
only were the teachers made aware that changes in management and feedback were
desirable, but they also received instruction on how to accomplish these objectives.
Results showed ALT-PE increased from34.7Vo to 57.3Vo and ALT-pE(M) from 7Z.SVo
to 37.7Vo.
Metzler (1981) assessed the value of intervention strategies to increase ALT-PE.
The subjects were three students and a student teacher from each of two archery
classes. The baseline measurements showed low percentages of ALT-PE(M), motor
responding, and motor engagement. After the intervention, an increase in motor
engagement and ALT-PE(M) was observed, along with a decrease in the student
waiting time.
Hart (1983) examined the effects of modification of teacher behavior on the
ALT-PE of selected students in physical education. ,Four elementary physical
19
education teachers were trained as observers to collect data with the ALT-PE
instrument. The teachers then measured their students' ALT-PE. After this, the
teachers then attended short instructional dinics, were given systematic feedback,
and were given a preset criterion level for certain behaviors to meet. The
relationship between the intervention and the behaviors at each school were
examined. The data revealed that the intervention resulted in reducing student wait
time and transition time and increasing the ALT-PE in three out of the four schools.
Paese 0982) assessed the effects of a university supervisor's feedback on the
ALT-PE(M) of two student teachers'volleyball classes. The ALT-PE instrument was
used to collect data. Teachers were given verbal and written feedback and strategies
on how to reduce management time after each of their observed cl,asses. The ALT-PE
instrument was found to be a valuable supervisory tool in helping student teachers
improve instructional performance and increase their students' achievement.
Teacher Awareness in the Classroom
Many educators have inaccurate perceptions of what is occurring in their
classrooms. Bondi (1.970 stated how aware the teachers are of their own behaviors
and that of their students has been assumed to be related to teacher effectiveness.
Teachers who are aware of their behaviors are able to correct negative behaviors or
maintain positive behaviors that enhance the learning process for their students.
Researchers have developed many systematic observation instruments to
provide teachers with objective feedback concerning the frequency and type of
interactions with their students. "An assumption underlying this use of observation
techniques is that teachers are unaware of certain aspects of their behavior in the
classroom" (Martin & Keller, 7975, p.47).
20
In a study by Withall (7972), it was revealed that 857o of the teachers from
nursery through graduate school had little alvareness of their behavior or what affect
it had on their students. In an attempt to determine the reasons why teachers
apparently lack awareness, Good and Brophy (197$ identified three factors:
1. The interaction in the classroom takes place at a rapid pace.
2. Teachers have not been trained to monitor and study their own behavior.
3. Teachers rarely receive systematic feedback from supervisors.
Batchelder (1'970 developed the Teachers' Questionnaire on Objectives (TQO)
from the CAFIAS categories to measure teachers'perceptions of their behaviors.
Twenty-five elementary teachers who taught English, math, and physical education
were observed. Before each class, each teacher filled out the TQO for three areas:
PuPil interaction, class structure, and variety of teaching agency. The classroom
interactions were coded by two reliable observers using CAFIAS. After comparing
the T@ to the observed teachers'classroom behaviors as recorded by CAFIAS, she
found only one of the 17 objectives that were observed to be significantly correlated
(pupil initiation, teacher suggested ratio). Results showed physical education
teachers were inaccurate in 94Vo of the estimates of their process objectives; whereas,
English teachers were inaccurate in 84Vo and math teachers in79Vo.
The relationship between perceived teaching behavior and observed teaching
behavior of 16 rhool health educators was investigated by Scriber 09n). In this
study, CAFIAS and a modified version of the TQO were used to collect data. The
teachers filled out the TQO before and after each class. The results revealed that only
four out of the 20 variables examined were significantly related. He concluded that
school health educators' perceptions of the class behaviors were different than the
actual observed behaviors.
Martin and Keller (1970 studied 30 classrooms, with each classroom being
observed for 1 day, to monitor dyadic interactions between the teachers and the
students. The teachers were told the amount of contacts they had with individual
students and were asked to estimate the percentages that were recorded in each of the
five categories: response opportunities, recitation and reading, procedural contact,
work contacts, and behavior contacts. Results showed that teachers were unable to
accurately estimate the number of contacts in each category.
Beam (1972) investigated 33 science teachers' displayed, perceived, and ideal
teaching behaviors to determine the effects of training in interaction analysis. The
subjects were divided into three groups who received training in interaction analysis
in conjunction with videotape feedback, training in the interpretation of interaction
analysis, and no training, respectively. Each teacher filled out a questionnaire
concerning his/her intended teaching behaviors (ideal behaviors) and those
behaviors actually used (perceived behaviors). FIAS was used to assess the displayed
behaviors. The data revealed that the teachers who received videotape feedback plus
interaction analysis tended to reduce the difference between their disptayed and ideal
behaviors and between their displayed and perceived behaviors. Teachers that only
received the training in the interpretation of interaction analysis tended to increase
the differences in both cases. The control group subjects showed no changes.
Van der Mars et al. (1981) examined the effects of instruction in and
supervision through interaction analysis on the relationship between perceived and
observed teaching behaviors of 36 pre.service physical educators who were randomly
assigned to a control or a treatment group. All subjects filled out the TQO prior to
22
and immediately following teaching. The control group received conventional
feedback. The treatment group received conventional feedback, feedback through
CAFIAS, and were shown a comparison of their questionnaire estimates to their
observed scores from CAIrL{S. Data revealed that the teachers who received the
systematic supervisory feedback were more indirect in their teaching style and were
better able to make accurate estimates of their class behaviors.
O'Brien (1985) investigated the effects of instruction in and supervision
through ALT-PE on the relationship between the perceived teaching behaviors and
the observed teaching behaviors of 30 pre'service physical educators. Each subject
was videotaped on three separate occasions while teaching in a micro-peer setting.
The three tapes of each subject were coded using the ALT-PE instrument. Prior to
every videotaped class and immediately following these classes, each subject fitled
out the Teacher's Questionnaire on the Students' Activities (TQSA). Based on the
ALT-PE categories, the TQSA was used to record the perceived students'behavior.
Subjects in both the treatment and control group received conventional feedback
while viewing their tapes. ln addition, the subjects in the treatment group received
instruction and supervision through ALT-PE while viewing their tapes. The
subjects in the treatment group were also shown a comparison of their post-dass
estimates from the TQSA and the observed scores from the ALT-PE instrument.
O'Brien concluded that pre'service physical educators instructed in and supervised
through ALT-PE were significantly more accurate in estimating observed students'
behaviors. It was also shown that pre.service physical educators instructed in and
supervised through ALT-PE had students who accrued more ALT-PE than those
students in the classes whose teachers only received conventional feedback.
23
Summary
Past studies by Getty 09m, Grecic et al. (1984), and Mancini et al. (1982) revealed
that training in interaction analysis had an immediate effect on the teachers'
behaviors and that the effect was still maintained up to 4 years following the
cessation of the training. Interaction analysis has been demonstrated to be a valuable
tool in the teacher training program and in modifying teachers'behaviors.
Researchers have recognized that engagement in relevant activities or
repetition of a skill facilitate student learning. The BTES used time-on-task,
specifically ALT, for a product measure of actual achievement (Berliner, 7979). Ttis
concePt was modified by Siedentop et al. (7979) for use in the physical education
setting and became known as ALT-PE. An observation instrument was then
developed to facilitate the gathering of ALT-PE data.
Several studies have used the ALT-PE instrument in physical education
settings to measure the amount of ALT-PE accrued by students. The effects of
various interventions and supervisory feedback on ALT-PE accrual have been
investigated by Birdwetl (1980), Hart (1983), Metzler (1981a), Paese (7982), and Whaley
(1980). Their research revealed intervention and supervisory feedback given to
teachers can increase their students' ALT-PE.
Teachers' perceptions of the classroom events and the actual classroom
behaviors are not always the same (Batchelder,1975; Good & Brophy, 1973; Martin &
Keller, 7975; Withall, 1,972). Training in systematic observation and systematic
supervisory feedback were found to decrease the difference between perceived
classroom behaviors and observed classroom behaviors by Beam (1972), O'Brien
(1985), and van der Mars et al. (1981).

The subi∝ts Were 26 physical educauon sndent teachers enrolled in either the
1985 fa1l or 1986 sPHng Student teaching practicurn at lthaca College′ Ithaca′ New
York.These subjects had earlier participated in a study by OIBrien(1985)that

conventional and systerrntic feedback――on pre‐service teachers:behaviors during
micro`peer teaching.All subiects Signed an info...led corlsent foニ ュニI(Appendices A―

Testi雖 Instnlments
The testing instnlment used to code the amount of time students spent
working directly on】meaningful leaming tasks was the revised ALT― PE observation
irstrument(SiedentOP et al.′ 1982). Version Ⅱ′the revised version′ consists of two
major decision levels: context level and leamer involvelnent level.There are three
major subd市isiolls within the context level(general content′ subject matter
knowledge′ and subiect matter motor)and 13 further categoHes that desc五 be the
namre Of the class environment. The leamer involvement level consists of two
major subdivisions(not rnOtor engaged and lnotor engaged)and eight n」 此her
categories that describe individual student behavlor. In this investigation the
recording fo...lat uSed was 6-s observe′ 6-s record.Three target students were
24
alternately observed in each chss.
The second instrument used was the Teachers Questiomaire on the Studentsi
Activities(TQSA). 0!Brien(1985)developed the questionnaire in order to compare
the teachersi perceptions of class events to the observed studentsi beha宙 ors′ as
measured by ALT― PE.The quesuorlnaire was modeled after Batchdder's(1976)TQO.
0:Brien used the ALT― PE′ version Ⅱ′categories as a basis to develop the insmmenrs
questions.
Based upon the recomlnendation of the thesis comlnittee and(Э tB五en′ the
instrument was modified for this study. Induded in the directioIIs was an
eXPlanation that percentages did not have to be an increment of 5′ but whatever
percentage that was used duHng class. The researcher also included an additional
question(1.b。)to dete...line what percentage of time the students were successful
when actively involved.The TQSA is presented in APpendiX D.
Intraobserve
htraobserver agreement(IOA)was assessed using the scored― inteⅣal agreement
method′ as recommended by Hawkis and Dotson(1973).Dr Victor mncini′ an
expert in descHptive― analytic techniques′ coded four randomly selected videotapes
during two independent coding sessios. IOA was calculated on an interval― by―
interval basis and was computed by dividing the number of intewals on which there
was agreement by the number of agreernents Plus diSagreements and then
multiplying the results by 100(Herson&Barlow′ 1976).The fo...lula is given below:
Areements X 100=%Of agreement or IOA.Agreernents+Disagreements
When both coding sheets shOwed the target behavior as oc― ing du五ng the
25
intenal, agreement was recorded. Whm the behavior recorded during the same
interval did not concur for both coding sheets, it was detemdned to be in
disagreement.
Treatment of Subiects
All zubjects involved in this investigation were videotaped three times while
teadrtng their regularly scheduled classes. The zubirts were divided into trro
groups-those who had received conventional supervisory feedback as part of
O'Brien's (1985) shrdy (control group) and those who had received systeuratic
supervisory feedback as part of O'Brien's Bhrdy (treaunent group). All three
videoapes were used for data analysis.
Each subject received instructions on how to fill out the TQSA before his or her
first teaching uperience and received additional information whitre fitling out post-
class estimates immediately following the videotaped class. The Erestionnaire was
filled out prior to and immedtately following the subiect's teadring of each class.
Proceduro
Each subiect was videotaped three tlmes while teadring his or her regutarly
scheduled classes. During the videotaping each subiect wore a wireless microphone.
The length of each teaching eession was approximately CI min. The activity taught
and type of teaching style were the teachet's choice.
Each subject was aslced to fill out the TQSA prior to and following the teadring
of each class. Detailed irutructioru were given to all subiects on the content of the
questionnaire.
The subjects were divided into two groups-those who received conventional
supenisory feedback as part of O'Brien's sttrdy and thooe who received systematic
feedbadk as Part of OtB五 en's study.
Methods of Data Couection
The宙deotapes made on each subject served as data fOr the analysis.The
videotapes were coded by an expert coder using the ALT‐ PE instrument.The TQSA
was completed by each subiect befOre the teaching session and again a■ er the class.
Only the post‐ class estiIIntes were used for analysls.
Data collected from the coding of ALT―PE were hand― scored and tra“ Posed into
PerCentages for the 21 vaHables identified by the ALT― PE insmment. Percentages
were also tabulated for the questiolじ on the TQSA.
Treat=lent of Data
Two steps were taken to lneet the assumption of independence of variables to
be analyzed by MANOVA. First′ seven selected variables were ehminated′ five from
the context level and two from the leamer involvement level. The decision to
eliminate a variable was based on its interest to the researcher′ its importance to the
quesuOn′ and the amount of recorded data it PЮ duCed.Accordingly′ ive va五 ables′
social behavioL breat rules′ fitness′ and background′ were ehminated from the
context level. Two variables′ interlm and】notor supportive Were elilninated from
the leamer involvement level. To dete...line the relatiorlship between the
perceived percentages recorded on the TQSA and the observed percentages recorded
through ALT― PE′ canonical correlations were perfo...led On the six varlables from
the context level(transition/managemenし wa.・・luP′ techniqu6 strategy′ practicQ
scrimmage/game)and On the six va五 ables from the learner involvement level
(waiting′ off―tast On― tast cognitivQ motor appropriate′ and motor inappropriate)
28
for both the treatment and control groups.
Pearson correlation was the second step taken to meet the assumption of
independence of variables to be analyzed by MANOVA. To check for
multicollinearity, Pearson correlations were computed on all variables to determine
the degree of relationship or association between any two variables. No statistical
test of the differences between correlations was applied because the correlations were
so obviously different that for practical purpose there was a clear difference between
the treatment and the control groups.
MANOVA was performed to determine whether differences in the students'
behaviors, as identified by ALT-PE, existed between the treatment and the control
groups. The percent that each variable contributed to the significant difference was
calculated using discriminant function analysis. An univariate analysis of variance
(ANOVA) was then used to identify which of the ALT-PE variables independently
contributed to the significant differences between the two groups. For all tests the .05
Ievel of significance was set prior to the data collection.
Summary
Twenty-six physical education student teachers who were divided into two
groups-those who had received conventional supervisory feedback as part of
O'Brien's study and those who had received systematic supervisory feedback as part
of O'Brien's study. All subjects filled out the TQSA prior to and immediately
following the teaching of each class. Only the post-c1ass estimates were used for
analysis and served as data for the perceived behaviors. Each subject was videotaped
three times while teaching his or her regularly scheduled classes. All the videotapes
served as data for the analysis. The observed teaching behaviors were coded by an
29
expert coder using ALT-PE. The data collected were hand-scored and transposed into
percentages.
Two steps were taken to meet the assumption of independence of variables to
be analyzed by MANOVA. First, seven selected variables were eliminated, five from
the context level and two from the learner involvement level. Canonical
correlations were used to determine the relationship between perceived percentages
from the TQSA and observed percentages recorded through ALT-PE for both the
treatment and control groups. Pearson correlation was the second step taken to meet
the assumption of independence of variables to be analyzdby MANOVA. To check
for multicollinearity, Pearson corelations were computed on all variables to
determine the degree of relationship or association between any two variables.
MANOVA was performed to determine significant differences in the students'
behaviors between the treatment and the control group. Then, a discriminant
function analysis was utilized to determine the percent that each variable
contributed to the significant difference. ANOVA was then executed to identify
which of the ALT-PE variables, when independently considered, contributed
significantly to any difference between the groups.
Chapter 4
ANALYSE OF DATA
The lasting effects of instruction in and supervision through ALT-PE on the
relationship between the perceived and the observed behaviors of students in classes
taught by physical education student teachers were studied. The subjects were 26
physical education student teachers enrolled at Ithaca College, lthaca, New York.
This chapter presents the results of the statistical analysis of the data in the following
four sections: (a) IOA, (b) relationship between perceived and observed students'
behaviors, (c) differences in students'behaviors, and (d) summary.
IOA
IOA scores were computed using the scored-interval method (Hawkins &
Dotson, 197r. Four randomly selected videotapes, two from the control group and
two from the treatment group, were coded during two independent coding sessions
by Dr. Victor H. Mancini, an expert in descriptiveanalytic studies. To determine
reliability for each of the categories of the ALT-PE recording instrument, the number
of agreements was divided by agreements plus disagreements and multiplied by 100
(Herson & Barlow, 1970. IOA scores ranged from93Vo to'l00Vo which were sufficient
to indicate the coder was reliable.
Relationship Between Perceived and Observed Students' Behaviors
In order to assess the relationship between the variables from the TQ$A and
the corresponding ALT-PE percentages for both the treatment group and the control
grouP, the canonical correlation technique Was used. The canonical correlation
technique was chosen since it is a multivariate type of comparison, and each
30
31
question had multiple responses. However, because the variables involved were
linearly dependent, the researcher was unable to execrrte the MANOVA procedure
for canonical correlations. Two steps were taken to meet the assumption of
independence of variables to be analyzd,by MANOVA. First, seven selected
variables were eliminated, five from the context level and two from the learner
involvement level. The decision to eliminate a variable was based on its interest to
the researcher, its importance to the question, and the amount of recorded data it
produced. Accordingly, the variables social behavior, break rules, fitness, and
background were eliminated from the context level. The variables interim and
motor supportive were eliminated from the learner involvement level. The results
for the treatment group showed four variables had significant correlations at the
context level, and four variables had significant correlations at the learner
involvement level. However, the control group showed no significant correlatioru
at the context level, and only one variable had a significant comelation at the learner
involvement level. The results are shown on Table 1 and Table 2.
Pearson corelation was the second step taken to meet the assumption of
independence of variables to be analyzed by MANOVA. To check for
multicollinearity, Pearson correlations were computed on all variables to determine
the degree of relationship or association between any two variables. For the
treatment group, the shared variance between the perceived and the observed scores
at the context level ranged from 87.57% (scrimmage/game) to 98.27Vo (practice). For
the control group, the amount of variance share by the perceived and observed
scores at the context level ranged from .08% (strategy) b 4A.83Vo (practice) (see Table
3). At the learner involvement level, for the treatment group, shared variance

the amount of shared variance ranged from 3.777o (cognitive) to ?3.50Vo (waiting)
(see Table 4).
No statistical test of the differences between corelations was applied because
the correlations were so obviously different that for practical purpose there was a
clear difference between the treatment and the control group. Therefore, the
hypothesis that there were would be no significant differences in the observed
teaching behaviors between the physical education student teachers who received
instruction in and supervision through ALT-PE and those that did not receive
instruction in and supervision through ALT-PE was rejected.
Differences in Students' Behavior
MANOVA was performed on 13 variables identi.fied through the use of ALT-PE,
six variables from learner involvement level and seven variables from context
level. In Table 5, the cell means for the treatment and control groups on the 13
variables are presented. The MANOVA procedure resulted in a value of F(7,78) =
8.04, for the context level, and a value of F(6,19) ='!7.92, for the learner involvement
level, which were both significant at the .05 level of significance. The findings of this
significant between-group difference led to the rejection of the second hypothesis
that there would be no significant difference between the accrued ALT-PE of students
engaged in classes taught by physical education student teachers who received
instruction in and supervision through ALT-PE and those who did not receive
instruction in and supervision through ALT-PE.
The discriminant function analysis identified the percentage of contribution to
the between-group difference for each of the seven context level variables and each

of the six learner involvement variables. These results are shown in Table 6. At the
context level, strategy accounted for 46.5OVo of the between-group variance. This was
followed by warm up (78.40Vo), transition/management (5.20Vo), background (3.03Vo),
scrimmage /game (0.00Vo), and technique (0.007o). At the learner involvement level,
on-task accounted for 2.56Vo of the variance. This was followed by waiting (2.16Vo),
motor inappropriate (7.70Vo), off-task (0.76Vo), motor appropriate (0.527o), and
cognitive (0.47Vo).
The univariate analysis of variance (ANOVA) on the seven variables from the
context level and the six from the learner involvement level is presented in Table 7.
The ANOVA identified the variables that contributed to the significant between-
group difference. At the context level, transition/management and warrn up were
the only two variables that independently contributed to the significant between-
group difference. At the learner involvement level four variables independently
contributed to the significant between-group difference. These four variables were
waiting, off-task, on-task, and motor appropriate to the significant between-group
difference.
Table 5 shows the difference in the mean percentage of occurrence for each of
the 13 ALT-PE variables. At the context level, the students in the treatment group
teachers' classes had more time in technique, strategy, and scrimmage/game than
the students in the control group teachers' classes. At the learner involvement
level, the students in the treatment group teachers' dasses had more motor
appropriate behavior and had less waiting time, off-task behavior, on-task behavior,
cognitive behavior, and motor inappropriate behavior than the students in the
classes taught by teachers in the control group.

Summary
IOA was established by the scored-interval method using four randomly
selected class sessions videotapes which were coded at two different viewings. IOA
ranged from 93Vo to "1.00Vo.
The canonical correlation technique was perfornred for the multivariate
comparisons on the variables from the TQSA and their related ALT-PE categories to
determine the relationship between the perceived and the observed teaching
behaviors in both groups. In order to meet the assumption of independence of
variables it was necessary to eliminate seven selected variables, five from the context
level and two from the learner involvement level. The treatment group showed
significant canonical correlations for four variables at the context level and four
variables at the learner involvement level. In the control group no significant
canonical correlations were found at the context level, and only one variable showed
significant canonical correlations at the learner involvement level. No statistical
test of the differences between correlations was applied because the correlations were
so obviously different that for practical purposes there was a clear difference between
the treatment and control groups. Therefore, the hypothesis that no significant
differences in the observed teaching behaviors between the physical education
student teachers who received instruction in and supervision through ALT-PE and
those that did not receive instruction in and supervision through ALT- PE was
rejected.
MANOVA was used to determine whether significant differences existed in the
students'behavior between the treatment and control group. The MANOVA
procedure resulted in a F(218) = 8.04, for the context level, and F(5,19) = 72.92, for the
M
learner involvement level which were both significant at the .05 level of
significance. This led to the rejection of the second hypothesis that there would be
no significant difference between the accmed ALT-PE of students engaged in classes
taught by physical education student teachers who received instmction in and
supervision through ALT-PE and those who did not receive instruction in and
supervision through ALT-PE. Discriminant function analysis identified the percent
of contribution to the between-group difference for each of the ALT-PE variables. At
the context level, strategy accounted for the greatest amount of variance, 46.50Vo. At
the learner involvement level, on-task behavior accounted for 2.55Vo of the
variance.
The ANOVA identified the variables that independently contributed to the
significant between-group difference. At the context level, transition/management
and warm up were the only two variables that independently contributed to the
significant between-group difference. At the learner involvement level, waiting, off-
task, on-task, and motor appropriate behavior all contributed to the significant
between-group difference.

DISCUSSION OF RESULTS
The purpose of this investigation was to study the lasting effects of instruction
in and supervision through ALT-PE on the relationship between perceived and
observed students'behaviors in dasses taught by physical education student
teachers. The TQSA was used to measure teachers' perceptions of the dass events.
The ALT-PE instrument was used to measure the actual students'behaviors.
The analysis of data revealed that physical education student teachers
instructed in and supervised through ALT-PE were significantly more accurate in
estimating observed students behaviors than those student teachers who only
received conventional feedback. This increased awareness allowed teachers to make
the necessary changes to increase the ALT-PE of their students, thus becoming more
effective teachers. Therefore, this data support the inclusion of ALT-PE instruction
and supervision in the undergraduate teacher training curriculum.
This chapter discusses the results of this investigation and compares them with
the results of previous studies. The chapter has been divided into five sections. The
first section compares and contrasts the results of this investigation with earlier
studies on the relationship between perceived and observed students' behaviors.
The second section compares the results of this study with those of earlier studies
using systematic supervisory feedback. The third section compares the results of this
study with other studies involving ALT-PE. The fourth section compares the results
of this study with other follow-up studies. The fifth section presents a summary of
the discussion.

Re[ationship Between Perceived and
Observed Teaching Behaviors
Martin and Keller (7970 stated that teachers are unaware of their behaviors in
the class. Withall (7972) found that 857o of the teachers she investigated had little
awareness of their behaviors or what effect it had on their students. This past
research indicates that awareness of the class events is a problem to many teachers.
This investigation also supports the belief that teachers are unaware of the class
events. The canonical correlation technique was used to assess the relationship
between variables from the TQSA and their related ALT-PE percentages. The
treatment group showed four variables had significant correlations at the context
level ( transition/management, warm up, technique, and strategy) and four variables
(waiting, off-task, on-task, and cognitive) had significant correlations at the learner
involvement. However, the control group showed no significant correlations at the
context level, and only one variable (waiting) had a significant correlation at the
learner involvement level. Correlation coefficients were computed to determine
the amount of shared variance by the perceived versus the observed scores. In the
control group, the shared variance ranged from 0.087o b 4a.83vo, and in the
treatment group, the shared variance ranged from 9.53Vo to 98.27Vo. This suggests
that the subjects who did not receive instruction in and supervision through ALT-
PE were not aware of their students' behaviors. The student teachers in the
treatment group, who had received systematic supervisory feedback, were more
aware of their behaviors and those of their students.
Many studies have been done using systematic supervisory feedback to help
teachers improve. Similarities and differences between this study and other shrdies
47
using systernatic supervisory feedback will be examined.
Batchelder (1970 developed the TQO from the CAIIL{S categories to measure
teachers' perceptions of their behaviors. Twenty-five elementary teachers who
taught English, math, and physical education were observed. After comparing the
TQO to the observed teachers' classroom behaviors as recorded by CAFIAS, she
found only one of the 17 objectives that were observed to be significantly correlated
(pupil initiation, teacher-suggested ratio). The relationship between perceived
teaching behavior and observed teaching behavior of 15 school health educators was
investigated by Scriber (1977). In this study, CAFIAS and a modified version of the
TQO were used to collect data. Similar to Batchelder's findings, he found that only 4
of the 20 variables were significantly related.
Beam (798D investigated 33 science teachers' disptayed, perceived, and ideal
teaching behaviors to determine the effects of training in interaction analysis. The
data revealed that the teachers who had received videotape feedback plus interaction
analysis training became more aware of their classroom behaviors. Van der Mars et
al. (1981) used the TQO and CAFIAS to examine the effects of instruction in and
supervision through interaction analysis on the relationship between perceived and
observed teaching behaviors of 36 pre.service physical educators. The researchers
found that the subjects who received the systematic supervisory feedback using
CAFIAS and who were shown a comparison of their perceived to their observed
CAFIAS scores were able to make more accurate estimates of their observed scores.
O'Brien (1985) also used pre-service physical education teachers to investigate the
effects of instruction in and supervision through ALT-PE on the relationship
between perceived and observed teaching behaviors. From the findings it was
48
concludd that the subjects who received the systematic supervisory feedback using
ALT-PE and who were shown a comparison of their post-class estimates from the
TQSA and the observed scores were significantly more accurate in estimating
observed student's behaviors than those subjects who only received conventional
feedbadc
In this investigation, the canonical correlation technique showed that the
variables in the context level and learner involvement level, for the treatment
group, were significantly correlated. This indicates that the subjects who had
received the ALT-PE feedback during O'Brien's (1985) study were still better able to
predict their behaviors and their students'behaviors than those subjects who did not
receive ALT-PE feedback. This study and that of Beam (7972), van der Mars et al.
(1981), and O'Brien (1985) supports the belief that teachers who receive systematic
supervisory feedback and are shown comparisons of their perceived to observed
behaviors are better able to predict their class behaviors than those without such
objective feedback
Many educators have inaccurate perceptions of what is occurring in their
classrooms. Bondi (7970) stated how aware the teachers are of their own behaviors
and that of their students has been assumed to be related to the teacher effectiveness.
Teachers who are aware of their behaviors are able to correct negative behaviors or
maintain positive behaviors which enhance the learning process for their students.
In order to improve teachers' effectiveness, it is necessary to provide teachers with
systematic supervisory feedback to increase their awareness of the behaviors of
themselves and their students. The data from this study also supported that the
treatment group students accrued more ALT-PE and learned more because their
49
teachers were more effective than the control group teachers.
Systematic Supervisory Feedback Studies
In the past, most studies have used FIAS and its modifications to gather data to
provide systematic supervisory feedback. Therefore, direct comparisons of the
present study which used the ALT-PE instrument to these studies is not possible, but
similarities to other studies can be discussed.
Hendrickson (1975) and Rochester (7975) both used CAFL{S as the training
instrument for pre-service physical education teachers during micro-peer teaching
lessons. Hendrickson found that the subjects who received instruction in and
feedback from CAFIAS asked more questions, accepted and praised students'ideas
more, were more student-oriented, and were more indirect in their teaching than
those subjects who did not receive instruction and feedback in CAFIAS. Rochester
found that the teachers trained in CAFIAS had less teacher talk, more verbal
questioning by the teacher, and more student-initiated behavior occurring in their
classes than those teachers who were not supervised using CAFIAS.
Getty 09n),Inturrisi (1979), and Vogel (7970 also used CAFIAS as their
observation instrument and feedback tool. Like the present study, the investigators
used physical education student teachers as their subjects. Their results supported
the findings of Hendrickson (1975) and Rochester (1976). These researchers found
that CAFIAS feedback was effective in bringing about desired changes in the
teachers' behavior. In this study, MANOVA, followed by a discriminant function
analysis, and ANOVA were performed on the seven variables at the context level
and on the six variables at the learner involvement level. The results of these
analyses indicated the groups were significantly different. These analyses indicated
50
that the teachers who received instmction in and supervision through ALT-PE
designed their instruction to allow their students to accrue more ALT-PE than those
students whose teachers did not receive the ALT-PE feedback. These findings were
similar to O'Brien (1985) who used the same group of subjects when they were pre.
service physical education students; these teachers instmcted in a micro.peer setting.
O'Brien found that pre-service physical educators instructed in and supervised
through ALT-PE were significantly more accurate in estimating their students'
behaviors and had students who accrued more ALT-PE than those students in the
classes whose teachers only received conventional feedback. The findings of this
study and those of Getty (7977), Hendrickson (7975),Inturrisi (797il, Rochester (1976),
Vogel (7970, and O'Brien (1985) support the idea that systematic supervisory
feedback can produce desired changes in both the students'behaviors and the
teachers' behaviors.
ALT-PE Studies
The effects of different interventions and forms of feedback on students' ALT-
PE were studied by a number of researchers. Whaley (1980) used daily feedback in an
attempt to increase the engaged time and motor responses of his students. Whaley's
findings indicated that the treatment had no significant effect on the ALT-PE of the
students. However, the results of this study were different. These results indicated
that the ALT-PE feedback produced a significant difference in the ALT-PE of the
students in the classes taught by teachers who received the ALT-PE feedback. The
effects of instruction and supervision through ALT-PE were still maintained up to 1
year following the cessation of training.
Birdwell (1980) examined the effects of intervention and daily feedback given to
51
three in-service teachers on the ALT-PE of their students. Results showed ALT-PE
increased from il.7Vo to 57.3Vo and ALT-PE(M) from 77.5Vo to 37.7Vo. These increases
are similar to the results obtained from Paese's (1982) study. Teachers who were
given verbal and written feedback and strategies on how to reduce management
time were able to increase their students'motor engaged time and their ALT-PE(M).
Metzler (1981) assessed the value of intervention strategies to increase ALT-PE.
He found that a simple intervention of moving archery targets further apart (thus,
allowing two students to shoot at the same time) increased motor engaged
percentages trom'1.5.4Vo to 35Vo and ALT-PE(M) from 7'l..8Vo to 29.5Vo. Hart (1983)
examined the effects of short instructional clinics and daily systematic feedback given
to teachers on their students' ALT-PE. The data revealed that the intervention
resulted in reducing student wait time and transition time and increasing the ALT-
PE of the students in three out of the four schools.
This investigation also found differences in students'ALT-PE. At the context
level, the treatment group students had more time in subject matter motor, 59.48Vo
compared to 52.46Vo in the control group classes. Students taught by teachers in the
treatment group accrued more ALT-PE than students taught by teachers in the
control group, 37.MVo versus 27.87Vo. The students in the treatment group had less
waiting time than the students in the control group teachers'classes. The
discriminant function analysis revealed that strategy contributed to the greatest
amount of the between-group difference at the context level, and that on-task
behavior contributed to the greatest between-group difference at the learner
involvement level. Therefore, this indicates that the treatment group teachers were
more effective teachers because they allowed their students more ALT-PE.
The findings of this present study and the findings of Birdwell(1980), Hart
(1983), and Paese (o982) all support the contention that interventions and ALT-PE
feedback can produce higher engaged time for the students and reduce waiting time.
This shows that the ALT-PE instrument is a valuable supervisory tool in helping
teachers improve instructional performance and increase their students'
achievement. Therefore, it seems evident that ALT-PE training and feedback should
be included in teacher training programs. The indusion of ALT-PE training and
feedback in undergraduate teacher programs may produce more effective teachers in
the future. However, the question to be asked ig are these results long lasting?
Follow-up Studies
Getty 09n) investigated the effects of CAFIAS training and feedback on student
teachers. The subjects trained in CAFIAS were more indirect in their teaching style,
used more praise, permitted more verbal and nonverbal student initiated behaviors,
and made better use of questions. In Getty's study, the differences that were observed
in the students'behavior following training were still present 1 month after training
had ended. As a follow-up study to Getty 09n), Mancini et al. (1979) used the TPCQ
on the same set of subjects in order to determine the lasting effects of instruction and
supervision in CAFIAS on teacher effectiveness. They found that the treatment
group scored higher on the TPCQ and were more effective. They also concluded that
teacher effectiveness could be maintained 1 month after the training had ended.
Mancini et al. (1982) investigated the effects of supervisory feedback using
CAFIAS up to 4 years post-training on 26 in-service teachers'behaviors, attitudes,
and effectiveness. The results revealed that the teachers trained in CAFIAS as
undergraduates used more questions, were more indirect in their teaching, and
53
acceptd and praised students more than those received who conventional
supervisory feedback. The teachers who had been trained in interaction analysis
were more effective and had a more positive attitude. The study showed that the
effects of interaction analysis training could be maintained 1 to 4 years after the
training period had ended.
Grecic et al. (1984) used the same set of subjects as Mancini et al. (1982) to
investigate the lasting effects of training in interaction analysis on the students'
ALT-PE during classes taught by in-service physical educators. The subjects trained
in interaction analysis as undergraduates were more efficient teachers and had
greater student involvement in their classes. The students in their classes had twice
as much ALT-PE as the control group students (40.1,70 compared to 2'l..3Vo).
O'Brien (1985) further investigated the effects of instmction and supervision
through ALT-PE by studying the relationship between the perceived teaching
behaviors and the observed teaching behaviors of 30 pre'service physical educators
involved in micro-peer teaching. It was concluded that pre-service physical
educators instructed in and supervised through ALT-PE were significantly more
accurate in estimating their students'behaviors. It was also found that pre.service
physical educators instructed in and supervised through ALT-PE had students who
accrued more ALT-PE than those students in the classes whose teachers only
received conventional feedback.
This study was undertaken as a follow-up study to O'Brien (1985) to determine
the lasting effects of instruction and supervision through ALT-PE on the
relationshiP between perceived and observed student behaviors in classes taught by
physical education student teachers. The results of this study show that the physical
一|
54
education student teachers who had been instructed in and supervised through
ALT-PE during O'Brien's study were more aware of their students'behaviors and
their students accrued more ALT-PE than those students whose teachers only
received conventional feedback. Therefore, this study concluded that the effects of
ALT-PE instmction and supervision were still maintained up to 1 year following the
cessation of training.
Summary
Physical education student teachers who received instruction and supervision
through ALT-PE showed a tendenry to perceive classroom behaviors significantly
more accurately than those teachers who did not receive the ALT-PE feedback.
Training in systematic observation and systematic supervisory feedback were
found to decrease the difference between perceived classroom behaviors and
observed classroom behaviors by Beam (7982), O'Brien (1985), and van der Mars et al.
(1981). The findings that teachers are unaware of their behaviors seem to coincide
with results from earlier studies (Batchelder, 7976; Martin & Keller, 7975; Sr;iber,
1977;Withall,7972). This lack of awareness can be addressed by providing teachers
with systematic supervisory feedback
MANOVA followed by discriminant function analysis and ANOVA resulted in
the findings of significant differences between the treatment and control group. The
mean percentages of each ALT-PE variable showed that the students in the treatment
group had more motor appropriate behavior (ALT-PE), practice and less waiting
time, off-task, and on-task behaviors than the students in the control group classes.
The findings of this present study and the findings of Birdwell (1980), Getty (797n,
Hart (1983), Hendrickson (1,975), Rochester (1975) and Vogel (1975) all support the
55
contention that physical educators who are provided with systematic supervisory
feedback are able to change their behaviors and their students' behaviors.
This present study was a follow-up study to O'Brien (1985) to determine the
lasting effects of instruction and supervision through ALT-PE on the relationship
between perceived and observed student behaviors in classes taught by physical
education student teachers. The teachers who received instruction in and
supervision through ALT-PE were significantly more accurate in estimating
observed students'behaviors and their students accrued more ALT-PE than those
teachers who only received conventional feedback. These findings were congruent
with O'Brien (1985), therefore indicating that the effects of instruction and
supervision through ALT-PE were still maintained up to 1 year following the
cessation of training. These results coincide with past studies by Getty (7977), Grecic
et al. (1984), and Mancini et al. (1982) that revealed that training in interaction
analysis had an immediate effect on the teachers'behaviors and that the effect was
still maintained up to 4 years following the cessation of training. Interaction analysis
has been demonstrated to be a valuable tool in the teacher training Program and in
modifying teachers' behaviors.
The results of this investigation supports the inclusion of ALT-PE instruction
and supervision in the undergraduate teacher training curriculum. Since the effects
of instruction and supervision in ALT-PE were long lasting, it appears that the use of
in-service ALT-PE feedback has the potential to assist pre-service teachers to be more
effective teachers.

SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS, AND RECOMMENDATIONS
FOR FURTHER STUDY
Summary
The lasting effects of instruction in and supervision through ALT-PE on
student teachers' behaviors, specifically their awareness of their behaviors and the
academic learning time they provide for their students in their classes, were studied.
The subjects were 25 physical education student teachers enrolled at Ithaca College,
Ithaca, New York. These subjects participated in a previous study by O'Brien (1985)
that assessed the effectiveness of two different types of supervisory feedback-
systematic and conventional feedback--on pre-service teachers'behaviors. This
investigation sought to determine if the effects of instruction and supervision
through ALT-PE would still be maintained up to 1 year following the cessation of
training. This follow-up investigation used ALT-PE as the testing instrument to
collect data on the observed students' behaviors. The TQSA (O'Brien, 1985) was used
to collect data on the perceived students'behaviors.
Each subject was videotaped teaching three 40 min physical education classes. The
tapes were coded using the revised ALT-PE instrument (Siedentop et al., 1982). Each
subject filled out the TQSA prior to and again immediately following each class. For
the analysis of the data all three videotapes of each subject were used, along with the
subject's post-class estimates of these classes.
Two steps were taken to meet the assumption of independence of variables to
be analyzed by MANOVA. First, seven selected variables were eliminated, five from
the context level and two from the learner involvement level. The decision to
56
57
eliminate a variable was based on its interest to the researcher, its importance to the
question, and the amount of recorded data it produced. Accordingly, five variables,
social behavior, break, ruIes, fitness, and background, were eliminated from the
context level. Two variables, interim and motor supportive, were eliminated from
the learner involvement level. The use of the canonical correlation technique for
the ALT-PE variables, multivariate in character, resulted in the findings of
significant canonical corelations for the treatment group for four variables in the
context level and four variables in the learner involvement level. The findings for
the control group showed no significant canonical correlations in the context level
and only one in the learner involvement level.
Pearson correlation was the second step taken to meet the assumption of
independence of variables to be analyzed by MANOVA. To check for
multicollinearity, Pearson correlations were computed on all variables to detennine
the degree of relationship or association between any two variables. Table 3 presents
the results of the significant correlations (p < .05) between variables at the context
Ievel. Table 4 presents the results of the significant correlations (p < .05) between
variables at the learner involvement level. No statistical test of the differences
between correlations was applied because the correlations were so obviously
different that for practical purpose there was a clear difference between the treatment
and control groups. Therefore, the hypothesis that no significant differences in the
observed teaching behaviors between the physical education student teachers who
received instruction in and supervision through ALT-PE and those that did not
receive instruction in and supervision through ALT-PE was rejected.
MANOVA was used to determine significant differences in the students'
58
behaviors between the treatment and control groups. The second hypothesis that
there would be no significant difference between the accrued ALT-PE of students
engaged in classes taught by physical education student teachers who received
instruction in and supervision through ALT-PE and those who did not receive
instruction in and supervision through ALT-PE was rejected at the .05 level of
significance. Dirriminant function analysis identified the percentages of
contribution of each individual variable to the between-group difference. At the
context level, the major contributors were strategy, warrn up, and
transition/management. The major contributors at the learner involvement level
were on-task, waiting, and motor inappropriate behavior. The ANOVA identified
the variables that contributed to the significant between group difference. At the
context level, transition/management and wann up were the only two variables
that independently contributed to the significant between-group difference. At the
learner involvement level, four variables independently contributed to the
significant between-group difference. These four variables were waiting, off-task, on-
task and motor appropriate behavior.
The findings for the treatment group related to the first hypothesis seem to
support findings in earlier studies by Beam (1972), van der Mars et at. (1981) and
O'Brien (1985) regarding the beneficial effects of instruction and supervision through
systematic supervisory techniques. The subjects who received instruction in and
supervision using systematic supervisory techniques tended to be significantly more
accurate in their estimates of their behaviors and those of their students than those
subjects who did not receive instruction and supervision through interaction
analysis and ALT-PE. The results of this investigation indicate that the effects of
59
instruction and supervision through ALT-PE were still maintained up to 1 year
following the cessation of training.
The findings related to the second hypothesis also coincide with earlier
researchers' findings (Birdwell, 1980; Getty, 7977; Hart, 1983; Hendrickson, 7975;
O'Brien, 1985; Rochster 7976; Quinn, 7982;Yogel,7976) about the effects of
supervisory feedback on students' ALT-PE. Interventions and systematic
supervisory feedback can have a positive influence on students'ALT-PE.
Conclusions
From the findings provided by this investigation the following conclusions
were drawn:
1. Physical education student teachers instructed in and supervised through
ALT-PE were significantly more accurate in estimating observed students'behaviors
than those physical education student teachers who only received conventional
feedback.
2. The effects of instruction and supervision through ALT-PE were still
maintained up to 1 year following the cessation of training.
3. Instruction and supervision through ALT-PE were found to be beneficial in
making physical education student teachers more aware of their students'behaviors.
4. Physical education student teachers who had been instructed in and
supervised through ALT-PE during O'Brien's study had students who accrued more
ALT-PE than those students whose teachers only received conventional feedback.
Recommendations for Further Study
The following recommendations are suggested for further study:
1. A study of the effects of instruction in and supervision through ALT-PE on
60
the relationship between perceived and observed students'behaviors using in-
seryice teachers.
2. A follow-up study using the same subjects to determine if the long-term
effects of instruction in and supervision through ALT-PE are maintained when they
become in-service physical education teachers.

STUDENT TEACHER COPY
1. PurPose. Research is being conducted to investigate the lasting effects of
instruction and supervision in Academic Learning Time-Physical Education (ALT-
PE) on student teachers' behaviors, specifically their awareness of their behaviors
and the academic learning time they provide for the students in their classes. The
student teachers selected for inclusion in this investigation participated in a study
last year where they received either conventional supervisory feedback or
instruction and supervision in ALT-PE while viewing the videotapes of their micro-
peer teaching. In last year's study, prior to and following their teaching, each subject
completed the Teacher's Questionnaire on Students' Activities (TQSA). The results
of the investigation revealed that those pre-service teachers who had received
instruction and supervision in ALT-PE were significantly more aware of their
behaviors and provided their students with significantly more academic learning
time or ALT-PE compared to those teachers who only received conventional
supervisory feedback. This study is being conducted to detennine whether the effects
of systematic supervisory feedback on teachers'behaviors and interactions are long
lasting by videotaping the subjects 1 year after their training during their student
teaching experience. The videotapes will be coded using the revised ALT-PE
instrument. The student teachers will be asked to complete the TQSA prior to and
following their teaching.
Benefits. With the resulting information student teachers may hopefully become
more aware of their behaviors and enhance their students' academic learning time.
61
52
Secondly, the information gained from this study will help evaluate the efficacy of
providing pre'service teachers with systematic supervisory feedback, such as ALT-PE,
as part of their professional preparation program by studying the effects of such
feedback 1 year later during their student teaching experience.
L Method. As a subject you will be asked to participate in the following manner:
A. Permit the researcher, Carol Collinson, to videotape three of your classes.
Drring this time, the only thing you will be asked to do is to wear a small wireless
microphone.
B. Prior to and immediately following your teaching you will be asked to
complete the TQSA. Each videotape will later be coded using the revised ALT-PE
instrument.
3. Will this hurt? There are no apparent physical or psychological risks involved
in participating in this study. At no time will your norrnal actions as a teacher be
affected by the videotaping. The coding instrument which wiU be used is
nonevaluative. The instrument describes the amount of time students are engaged
in performing motor activities.
4. Need more information? If you wish to know more information about the
study, please feel free to contact Carol Collinson or Dr. Victor H. Mancini at274-3109
at Ithaca College.
5. Withdrawal from the study. Participation is voluntary, and your agreement to
participate does not prevent you from discontinuing your participation at any time.
6. Will the data be maintained in confidence? Yes, it is assured that the names
and schools in this study will be kept in the strictest confidence. Videotaping is
solely for the Purpose of this study and will be available only to the researchers,
63
Carol Collinson and Dr. Victor H. Mancini, and the student teacher involved.
When the study is completed, the tapes will be erased.
7. I have read the above and I understand its contents. I agree to participate in this
study.

1. Purpose. The study in which your son/daughter is asked to participate focuses
on determining the lasting effects of supervisory feedback using the Academic
Learning Time'Physical Education (ALT-PE) instrument on student teachers'
behaviors, specifically on their students'academic learning time. The ALT-PE
instrument provides a means to systematically assess the opportunities teachers
provide their students to learn, specifically students' time'on-task.
Benefits. With the resulting information student teachers may hopefully
become more aware of their behaviors and enhance their students' academic
learning time. Secondly, the information gained from this study will help evaluate
the efficary of providing pre.service teachers with systematic supervisory feedback,
such as ALT-PE, as part of their professional preparation program by studying the
effects of such feedback 1 year later during their student teaching experience.
2. Method. Student teachers will be videotaped teaching three classes. Your
son/daughter, as a student in the class, will be asked to participate by atlowing
him/herself to be videotaped for these three classes. The videotaping will not
interfere with your son's or daughter's normal actions in class nor will they be asked
to wear any identifying markers. Iater, each videotape will be coded by a trained
observer using the ALT-PE instrument. This systematic observation instrument
permits the description of the academic learning time teachers provide the students
in their classes.
3. Will this hurt? There are no apparent physical or psychological risks involved
66
67
in participating in this study. The coding instrument beiog used in this
investigation is nonevaluative; it simply describes the students' activities.
Participation in this investigation is voluntary, and the parent's agreement to the
student's participation does not prevent him or her from rliscontinuing the
student's participation at any.time. If your son/daughter does not wish to participate
in this investigation, arrangements will be made with the physical educator to
provide your child with another comparable physical education opportunity. This
will be done by having the physical educator divide the class in half, with one half of
the class assigned to the physical educator and one half to the student teacher.
Students who do not wish to participate would inconspicrrously be included in the
half of the class working with the physical educator (this half of the class would also
include students who indicated their willingnes to participate).
4. Need more information? If you wish to know more information about the
study or the results of this study, please feel free to contact Carol Collinson or Dr.
Victor H. Mancini at 27*3709 at Ithaca College.
5. Withdrawal from the study. Participation in this study is voluntary. Your
agreement to allow your son/daughter to participate does not prevent you from
discontinuing his/her participation at any time. If this occurs, your son/daughter
will be provided with another comparable physical education opportunity by his/her
physical educator.
6. Will the data be maintained in confidence? Yes, it is assured that the names
